6 Foot Bullwhip Plaiting

I am working on a blue & black 6 foot bullwhip.  It is built like most of my snakewhips (core, bolster, belly, reinforcement, overlay) except, of course, it has a rigid handle.  Right now I'm plaiting the twelve plait overlay.  Here's a pic...



If you're interested here's how I secure my whips while plaiting them.



I clamp it to a post in my house using an Irwin Quick-Grip.  Not very sexy, but hey it works.  I'll try to add more later.  Check out my previous post for more general information about my whips.

Happy cracking,

Ryan
